Hello there from Errol in Australia.  Can't advise much on the reproductive system.   I know that there is some therapy used in the Princess Alexandra Hospital Spinal Injuries unit in Brisbane Qld Australia.   Maybe your doctors over there could contact the people at PAH here for advice.
 
Don't feel alone in the land of the long white cloud my friend, there is plenty of TM ers over here and in other parts of the world, unfortunately we are a unique group.   If you have any questions, I'm sure there is someone on this list who will have some good advice for you.
 
Regards from Errol, Narnagba, Qld Australia.

Hi,
 
Well I am glad such a website. I have had TM since I was 10 1/2 ( now 23 )
I am paralyzed with it from the waist down but also effected in my hands which makes me part Quad.
I honestly thought it was extremely rear but when I see how many people effected by it, it amazes me.
I live in New Zealand and there have only been about 3 cases I know of in this part of the world.
As I am married I would like to know if there has been any tests on the male reproductive system. if that has been effected or any treatments have been used etc.

hope to hear back.
